College coaches donât either, but itâs college; good luck getting 35 bored baseball players to not dance to music while they wait two hours for rain clouds to disappear. There in lies the one difference of a rain delay for fans versus a rain delay for players.
A good MCAT score is one that puts you near or above the average percentile for matriculants at your target medical schools. The highest MCAT score possible is a 528, and the scale is centered so that a 500 represents the 50 th percentile, or average MCAT score. AAMC recommends that admission committees consider applicants near the center of the range. To be on the safe side, aim for a total score of around 510.
What do MCAT percentiles mean? The percentile in the score report is a measure of how well your score compares with all other people who took the MCAT. It is NOT a measure of what percentage of questions you got right. For example, a 95th percentile score means that 95% of all test takers received the same score or lower. In other words, a student that attains a 95th percentile score is in the top 5% of all test takers. When the new MCAT was launched in 2015, there was a lot of concern about all the new content that would be tested.
